उत्तर
\[\text { It is given that the sides of the cuboid are in the ratio 5: 3: 1 } . \]
\[\text { Suppose that its sides are x multiple of each other, then we have: } \]
\[\text { Length = 5x m } \]
\[\text { Breadth = 3x m } \]
\[\text { Height = x m }\]
\[\text { Also, total surface area of the cuboid = 414 }m^2 \]
\[\text { Surface area of the cuboid = 2 }\times (\text { length } \times \text { breadth + breadth } \times \text { height + length }\times \text { height })\]
\[ \Rightarrow 414 = 2 \times (5x \times 3x + 3x \times 1x + 5x \times x)\]
\[ \Rightarrow 414 = 2 \times (15 x^2 + 3 x^2 + 5 x^2 ) \]
\[ \Rightarrow 414 = 2 \times (23 x^2 ) \]
\[ \Rightarrow 2 \times (23 \times x^2 ) = 414 \]
\[ \Rightarrow (23 \times x^2 ) = \frac{414}{2} = 207\]
\[ \Rightarrow x^2 =\frac{207}{23} = 9\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = \sqrt{9} = 3\]
\[\text { Therefore, we have the following: }\]
\[\text { Lenght of the cuboid = 5 } \times x = 5 \times 3 = 15 m \]
\[\text { Breadth of the cuboid = 3 } \times x = 3 \times 3 = 9 m \]
\[\text { Height of the cuboid = x = 1 } \times 3 = 3 m\]
